A Tone Feast.

Two OF the greatest artists now in this
country will be heard tonight and to-mor-
row afternoon and night at the Grand
Opera house-Trebeli, the wyrld's greatest
contralto, and Musin, the famous violinist.
Trebelli has a magnificent, full, round con-
tralto voice, and is the fit interpreter of
the mightiest efforts OF the tone masters OF
the world. Musin, as violinist. possesses
marvellous execution and sympathy OF
tone together with brlliancy OF execution
that places him in the front of all perform
ers on the king OF Instruments.
Mons. Musin paid The MINER a visit ON
his arrival here yesterday and gave glow
ing account of the success that has
crowned their tour. In San Francisco, he
said, they packed the opera house to suf-
location. Patti herself did no more than
did they. 1t has been the same wherever
they appeared-in Los Angeles, Portland
and all along the Pacific coast. Nine.
Trebeli and the artists with her have estab-
lished their reputation on the Pacific coast
as the most accomplished artists in their
respective specialities who have ever visited
there. From Portland they went to Brit
ish Columbia, and thence here. he pro-
gramme they will perform here will be COM
posed mostly OF popular selections, to
conclude with scenes from Carmen on
Monday night and at the matinee on Tues
day, and from I'll, ,Trovatore" on Tuesday
night. Lovers OF music will never have an
opportunity to hear their superiors and
the rich treat they offer ought to be eagerly
availed OF by all who have the slightest ear
for music. Yielding to general request,
the company will give matinee tomorrow
afternoon at O'Clock to afford those an
opportunity to hear them who cannot be
present at the evening concerts.

works.
The Butte Reduction Works are shipping
from Melrose from two to four car loads pei
week Of silver bearing lime rock, for fux.
ing purposes.
Cattle have suffered but little during the
past winter, and are looking we'll. as the
stockmen have all been we'll supplied with
hay. Tom Robbins and Dave Evans re-
port no losses whatever.
Bingham has still on hand about 100
tons Of fine timothy hay, and is hanging
on for better prices than those paid at
present. As he is the only man in the val
ley who has any hay, he will undoubtedly
get his figure.
Farmers generally are preparing to raise
large crops Of hay, cereals and vegetables.
Some have already sown wheat. and oats
are being put in.
Very many improvements are going on
at different ranches. JEFF McCauley has
added materially to his place by erecting
new house, building sheds, etc.
The Hecla Company, Maddox and Cen
eral are employing full forces of men and
producing more and better ore than ever.
Never has the southern portion OF this
county looked so prosperous.
One of the officials OF the Hecla Compa-
ny's store at Melrose is about to throw
himself into the matrimonial cauldron
with a bright, vivacious, witty, sparkling
and pretty belle OF Glendale.
Fine weather for the past month, but
March is now here in April.

A WEAK CASE.
Justice Dingevon and Constable Morse.

In the District Court yesterday the
case of the Territory OF Montana VS. Dinge-
von and Morshead came up for hearing.
This was an action for false Imprisonment
of one Honaker, by which it was attempted
to subject these gentlemen, who are re-
spectively Justice of the Peace and Con-
stable, to punishment for acts done in pur-
suit of their official occupations. The
facts as developed in the testimony are
that, on the I'd of March of the present
year, papers were fled in Justice Dinge-
von's Court by Messrs. Campbell & Duffy,
acting aa attorneys for John Stanley,
against Honaker, in suit on which sum.
mons and writ of attachment were issued
the same day and placed in the hands of
Constable Morshead. After due search for
property belonging to Honaker.
the writ OF attachment was returned
ursatisfed. Upon motion of plaintiff an
order was issued under section 1SS of the
Code OF Civil Procedure citing the defend
ant to appear before the Justice that he
might be examined concerning his property.
The Constable was unable to meet Hona-
ker on the evening OF the Sd when the sum-
mons was read to him and he was fur
nished with a copy OF the citation. He
vOluntari1y accompanied the Constable
to the Justices court room, and, asking
for an explanation of the proceedings, was
informed OF their nature. Thereupon he
asked permission to 60 after an attorney,
which was granted. At the request of Mr..
Duffy and also OF the defendant the Consta-
BILE accompanied the defendant to the Of
fee OF Pemberton & Keithly, upon which
hinged the accusation of arrest. The evil
dence brought to sustain the charge
developed this state of facts and
Mr.. Duffy made an eloquent
address to the jury, showing that the acts
of which complaint was made were simply
those that the law places in the hands of
it's executive officers to enable a creditor to
reach property in the hands of a debtor in
satisfaction OF obligations incurred, and
that neither Justice Dingevon nor Consta-
BILE Morshead exceeded the strict letter of
the law in their acts. Mr.. Walsh followed
in an address ridiculing the attempt to
make capital out of such simple perform
ance of official duty, and was followed by
Mr.. Keithly for the prosecution. The
jury were out for a short time, and re-
turned with q verdict in the case against
Morshead, which went to trial first, of not
guilty, which also involves the exoneration
Of Justice Dingevon.

av;deree vas that Richie was the propr,e
| tor. frat a nerformance was going on, ana
! that theae witnesses went there and DRAM
beer, for which they paid 2 girl. Iney
don't produce that girl. Perhaps tney
can't. anv wav. they don't, and what
more they don't prove that the girl whoca
they got the beer from was empioyeo ~
tRitchie-tbat he ever spoke to ner-tnao ne
saw her. They never proved that sne ss nas
employed by Richie; that because otnel
girls were 50 employed was no inference
That chat Girl passed the money over the
bar. II was the fault of the prosecution
that they did not show that she sold the
glass of liquor and passed the money over
the bar. They could surely prove by some
one that she was employed TO sell Deer
there by Ritchie. She might have been
there and bought that liquor herself. FMS
misdemeanor has only been made SO cy
the last Legislature. 1t is not wrong in
itself like murder, larceny ana
such offences, but merely q subject wnlcn
has been interdicted by the late Legislature.
Aud What was it? 1t made that crime IN
one room where certain people we're en-
ployed which was none in the next room.
A man might run q saloon and sell tne
worst kinds of liquor which would provoke
fights and murders; but he could not DO 80
if women were employed in a place or
where a variety show was carried on. mr.
Stapleton concluded by declaring that
clear statement should be made out and
the prosecution had no right to ask the
jury to jump at anything.
M. Walsh concluded the addresses to
the jury by recalling to them the simple
facts that were proved which he held sus-
tained the indictment.
Judge Galbraith then instructed the jury
that it was not indispensable for the pros
ecution to show that the defendant sold
the liquor. A party may be liable for an
offence committed by an agent ii he au-
thorized him to do SO. The jury must be
satisfied that the person who sold the beer
to Jennison was authorized to do so by
Ritchie. The Judges instructions were IN
favor of the defendant. he dwelling strongly
ON the question of agency.
The jury was then taken in charge by q
bailiff and retired to consider their verdict
while the court took up the second case
against the same defendant growing out OF
the same transactions. This indictment
was for selling liquor where women were
in the business there carried on.
A jury was called and the testimony for
the prosecution was submitted, when the !
defence asked for q nonsuit on the ground
that man cannot be tried twice for the I
same offence. The point was argued and
the Court sustained the objection and Or |
dered the case nonsuited.

Soon shall the mystic, creamy things of life
Be passed-and for that distant uneeen shore
We all shall SALON. on forev ermore.
Eternity is but step beyond
This life of frenzy, weariness and care,
Dark clouds obscure the light of that far world
But faith unfaltering tells us it is fair.

A flood of music soft, like ripping streams,
That fills our souls with deepest ecstacy.
The angels of that distant world are near.
Soothing and cheering with their melting lay
Bidding US hope and trust and never fear,
For soon there shall be happier, brighter days
Soon we shall bid farewell to all nfs's cares,
Its pangs, its mysteries, its hea rtaches sore:
Soon death will come and take us nnawsres
Away from all these trials forevermore.
Away from all the dimming binding mists.
That lead US often VIII n We would be good,
Away to join the ever lasting lists,
Where we shall all be known and understood
Oh, gladly should we take that better life,
And ready waiting stand upon the shore,
And gladly should we leave this bitter strife,
To 60 to the beyond forevermore.
